Description

Citizen Science stands out as a highly engaging method that can allow students and teachers to delve into physics research. At INFN Frascati National Laboratory we will organize, in collaboration with European Citizen Science Association (ECSA), the European Citizen Science Academy and Citizen Science Italia, a Citizen Science School addressed to high school students, teachers, University students and researchers focused on Rome Technopole’s research macro areas. The working group on Physics, energy and sustainability will provide the opportunity to explore how thermodynamics, and physics in general, are fundamental to create an informed and fertile discussion around sustainability and energy transition.
